Hi,

have had some sleepless nights about whether getting the 167 was a good idea but with time, I am getting used to the looks of it - it does look great, maybe the one thing what i would have liked would be 2 to 3 mm spacers: i had the 166 with offset 28 and 13 mm spacers, this was perfect. the 167 i have now have an offset of 17 which is like having offset 28 with 11 mm spacers - the 2mm does make a difference, believe it or not.

so guys, if anyone getting 166 or 167, i would recommend take the rims with offset 28 and put on 13 mm spacers - no rubbing issues and also looks great and aligned with the front.

cheers

Hey,

they are from my tire dealer - check out www.spurverbreiterung.de -> spurverbreiterung translates to spacers in english. They seem to have all sizes from 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm etc...

Nop, not schwechat but Vienna town..

cheers
